In the cold season, these annoying creatures seek warm and well-fed places, so they move en masse into human dwellings. They squeeze through cracks in floors and walls, and penetrate basements, sewers, and drainpipes.
They are especially attracted to the heat from electrical appliances, which is why they are most often found in the kitchen. One easy way to get rid of unwanted guests is to use a regular lemon.
This method is useful for those who do not want to use chemicals such as aerosols, gels, powders or liquids to combat insects. Lemon is completely safe for both the environment and human health.
This is its main advantage over chemical preparations. Despite this, citrus fruit is no less effective in combating cockroaches.
Simply cut a lemon into slices and string them on a string (4-5 slices each). After that, you need to spread out or hang these “traps” in places where you have noticed cockroaches.
Since these insects cannot stand the smell of lemon, they will never return to a home that is saturated with its aroma.
